Table of Contents
If you’re hunting for a solid mid-range gaming PC for less this holiday season, the Thermaltake LCGS View u2660T-170 is worth checking out. With a humble 5% price cut, it has been knocked down to $1,527.97, which is a decent ask for a prebuilt gaming PC that features the Core Ultra 7 265KF and the RTX 5060 Ti.
This hardware should deliver a smooth gaming experience and handle productivity tasks without breaking a sweat. It features a B860 motherboard, which is perfect for the 265KF, and overall, we think it should be worth the money. We’ll explore what it has to offer a bit deeper in this article, so let’s get started.

- RTX 5060 Ti has only 8GB VRAM
What made this gaming PC stand out from the crowd
To begin with, this gaming PC offers a good balance between performance and value, thanks to the modern hardware. The Core Ultra 7 265KF is just like the Core Ultra 7 265K, which we’ve reviewed in-house, and the only difference is that the former doesn’t have integrated graphics. So, to showcase what it is capable of, here are some of the real-world benchmarks.

So, as you can see, it might not have the best gaming performance, but when it comes to productivity, it blows the competition out of the water, and that is generally what the Arrow Lake processors excel at. Combined with its abilities, the RTX 5060 Ti should deliver a solid 1080p and 1440p gaming experience, but since it is an 8GB variant, non-gaming workflows might take a hit.
For gaming, you’ll have the AI upscaling technologies to move the heavyweight, which is great. 32GB of DDR5 RAM is plenty for serious multitasking. However, since DDR5 RAM is very expensive now, getting a PC with 32GB of it at this price is exceptional, as prices have skyrocketed, with some sticks costing more than GPUs.
